Mainly just take charge of your life and kick ass with authority. This is the most important time to focus on being the kind of person you want to spend the rest of your life being, because your brain is locking down the templates.

Computers and internet will alter your sleep schedule because the light of a monitor is calibrated to arrest your circadian rhythm, and interactive stimulation like chats or social media updates (or god forbid, Counter-Strike) keep your brain in active engagement mode. The best way to turn off the machine is to turn off the machine, but you can also turn the screen brightness way down and avoid active media once it starts getting dark outside.
